At a minimum I think we should support soundex in the core. I'm willing
to move soundex and metaphone into the backend. Does anyone see a
reason not to do so?

Hey everyone,
I've been working with a couple people who didn't know that soundex
and metaphone were included in the distribution as contrib modules.
While it's their fault that they didn't check contrib, soundex is
pretty common among database systems and I was wondering if there was
a reason it is not included as a core function?
Because no one's taken ownership of the code and made a case for
integrating it into the core backend.
